Jun 11, 2019 at 15:35 comment added abx Sorry, but if you don't see why $H_1$ is relevant, there is no way I can explain it in a comment. Have a look at the chapter on Riemann surfaces in Griffiths and Harris.
Jun 11, 2019 at 14:43 comment added Alessio @abx Thanks for the answer. Sorry, but I don't get your hint, can you spell out a bit more? (Meanwhile I figured out another proof by showing that $J$ satisfies the universal property of $\mathrm{Alb}(C^{(n)})$ but I still would like to understand your approach). I tried to use that $\mathrm{Alb}(X)=\mathrm{Pic}^0(X)^{\vee}$ and the exponential sequence, but I don't see where the isomorphism on $H_1(-,\mathbb{Z})$ comes from and how to apply it.
Jun 10, 2019 at 16:44 comment added abx @Alessio: Yes, $\operatorname{Alb}(C^{(n)})\cong J $. Use the fact that the natural map $C^{(n)}\rightarrow J$ induces an isomorphism on $H_1(-,\mathbb{Z})$.
Jun 10, 2019 at 9:49 comment added Alessio @abx Sorry for the intrusion, but why is $\mathrm{Alb}(C^{(n)}\times C^{(n)})\cong J\times J$? Is in general, $\mathrm{Alb}(C^{(n)})\cong J$? Where does it come from?
Feb 4, 2018 at 17:01 comment added abx Sorry, I assumed the OP meant projective fiber bundle. I am not sure what he means by "fiber bundle".

Feb 4, 2018 at 16:25 comment added Jason Starr I also agree that this is not a "fiber bundle" in the sense of a morphism that, locally on the target, is isomorphic to projection of a product scheme to a factor. However, I do not see how to deduce this from the Albanese variety (perhaps the fiber itself has nontrivial Albanese isomorphic to $J$). Rather, I believe that this follows from the fact that the projective bundle $C^{(n)}\to \text{Pic}^n_{C/k}$ is not equivariant for the natural action of $\text{Pic}^0_{C/k}$. Of course if $k$ equals $\mathbb{C}$, then Ehresmann applies to the underlying differentiable manifolds.
Feb 4, 2018 at 13:56 comment added abx Certainly not. If it was, the induced map on the Albanese variety would be an isomorphism. But $\operatorname{Alb}(C^{(n)}\times C^{(n)})\cong J\times J $.
